"A Sure Way to Security" STOP CHICKEN THIEVES BV T.AT(H) SYSTEM Farmers must begin to protoci themselves (rum tltieves who steal chickens wholesale. The sneak who formerly robbed hen roots o(*8ne or two birds did 1 it t if dam age but> those who come now in trucks and take all the layers in a poultry house are causing" seri- 1 ous losses to North Carolina poul trymen * "We have two* ways of com - batting this trouble." says C. F. Parrish, extension poultryman at State College. "First", we must wire the poultry houses with bur glar alarms so that a buzzer will be set o(f in the home. Those who do not have rural electrical lines should secure dry batteries for this purpose. "Second, we must adopt a tat-, tooing system so that we may be able to ideiiti(y stoleu chickens and thus secure convictions. In the past, a farmer could not swear 1 to the -identity of his birds ^e-i cause they were like those belong ing to some other person. Under the tattoo system, however, a symbol or letter will he awarded | to a given county and eacli farm-' er iu that county will have a mini- j ber. In this way the identity of the chickens may be definitely established." Mr. Parrish said these two sys-| terns had worked in those states i where given a trial. Commission men and buyers are cooperating with the farmers and unless the chickens come in a way that the, buyer knows is legal, he informs the growers about receiving so many chickens from u certain per son. The farmer can follow through and secure convictions it' the birds were stolen- from his houses. "We have instances where thieves have taken 15 or more birds from one farmer and gonie ! on to the next place where they have picked up ot'hers until the truck is loaded." Parrish said. "In other instances, the thieves have simply wiped out the entire laying flock of some hard work I ing family We must put a stop to this.*^^ ' CIVIL SKltVKK EXAMINATIONS .U.VOCNCKI) 'l'lif r uited States Civil Service Commission lias anuouuced open competitive examinations tor tlie following positions: Landscape architect, various grades, $2,600 to $3,800 a year.

II X (il'inn mat' Grade News February has been a very in teresting month for the grammar : grades. Many interesting projects i have Been eaiyied out and it real i-ly makes many members of the I high school long for the good old days. Mrs. A. B. Perry's room has been enjoying watching the grad ual appearance of the ninny : Spring birds. The pupils report i each day on the various birds that j they see and these reportts are j printed on a neatly coustructed j chart. Another very useful project I was the building of a bookcase to < be used for supplementary books. Mrs. H. H. Perry's room plan I, ned thair activities around the ' events of the month. They made a calendar putting in all import ' ant drjtes such as Edison's. Lin coln's, Lindbergh's and Washing ton's, birthdays. Thoy arranged a sand table depicting the boyhood . of Lincoln and the life of Wash ington. In connection with Valen tine Day they studied the post man and the. post office, and had individual mail boxes. Their pre sent' project is time aud the clock. Miss Winston's grade has been making an interesting study and j collection of insects. After the ' completion of this study they in | tend to make a moving picture of i the insects. | Mrs. Lewis' grade gave an in teresting chapel program on the birthlay of Longfellow and his | poems for children. Though February Is the short est month of the year, it is also one^of the most important months because it is full of birthdays of people that America will never forget. Many of t?he high school | chapel programs have been, based on these too. Now, as February draws to a close, we realize that | its shortness has been no disad I vantage ? it marks another month of outstanding activities in the ; grammar grades. t t t Chapel Program Miss Davis, t'he sixth grade teacher, had charge of the Chapel program on Tuesday of last week. The program was interesting as well as educational.! They had a large calendar upon the stage. ! Beneath the date of each day they . had written the name of the great ' persons who were horn t'hat day. ' One of the pupils would then tell about his life. The grade then sang two songs. j On Friday, under the directions i of. Eleanor Beasley, the seventh grade presented a play, "The Valentine Princess." The actors | were Martha Grey, King, Selima [ Joyner, Evelyn Smitliwick. Eaton i Holden. and Gleu Person. lit Junior Class .Mooting The Junior Class recently held two meetings with President Bob ( bie Parrish presiding. The object of both meetings was to discuss further ways and means of raising j mor? funds for the Junior-Senior Banquet which will be sometime in April. Our goal for this is one hundred dollars or more. We decided to have a rummage sale Saturday (to-morrow) down town, and another party around March 25. Seventy dollars will be col lected from class dues. The Junior class will appreciate any coopera tion from the public, the fellow students. and friends in helping to make our plans a success. - Father (intense with excita ?ment) ?
